See how GreenPrint can help save paper

by Seth Rosenblatt

GreenPrint World scans print jobs before they hit the page to make them as tree-friendly as possible. It creates a print filter, intercepting your print jobs before they reach the spooler and checking them against a list of preset but adjustable criteria. You can have it grab by the number of lines on a page, for example.

In this First Look video, we'll show you how the program can help you prevent wasteful print jobs--and how it could be even better.

Seth peers into the deep, dark corners of software so that you don't have to. He has yet to suffer a single nightmare about OS/2. You can follow him on Twitter.

I've discovered a great way to save paper too. I have one of the pdf printer driver programs in the computer and when I want to print web pages, I just make them into pdfs. Then I can look at them anytime using Foxit.

Green print is very user friendly and more important to me it does what it says it can do.
